Here's my five minute attempt at Faiz...
Technology has progressed to the point where it rules everyone's life, making the B.R.A.I.N. company in charge of the world. They are using technology to turn people's imaginations into monsters (taking out the part where people die) so they can conquer the world to force people to forever but their ipads and stuff. . An employee escapes, however, taking with her new tech designed to help the monsters take over. Running away, she comes across a homeless person (our main character, Leo) who's never used technology, so he is unnaffected by B.R.A.I.N.s influence. He puts on the belt, and to save the lady, he becomes Kamen Rider Tech.
Over time, they are joined by Kamen Rider Cross (A human who broke B.R.A.I.N.s control and hates them;adapted from Kaixa) and Kamen Rider Shade (a man who found a prototype gear;adapted from Delta). Kamen Rider Tech later becomes Kamen Rider Sonic Tech, and then Kamen Rider Blast Tech, when they retreive the new 'Blast Gear' from BRAIN.
We can market the same toys because we can say the Tech gear looks old because any new-looking stuff is under BRAINs control. We can also sell DX Autovaijin and SideBassha figures, along with figures of the figures.
The characters would remain basically the same, except we would cut out Tech being an Orphenoch (now called imagi after imagination (and something else)).
We could also say the movie is the riders being 'downloaded into a BRAIN simulation. They have to fight their way out before they get fully digitised.

I like this idea. What do you guys think??

I'd want to adapt either Kabuto, Double, or OOO. Any of those 3 series have great marketing potential. I really only have a story idea for Kabuto at the moment:

-Not going to make up a list of names, but I think most of the Rider names would stay the same, though some would change (maybe call TheBee Wasp, and Sasword Swordpion)
-The basic situation is the same, a meteor crashed into Earth seven years ago unleashing a swarm of aliens who can hide amongst us. Let's add a small change here and say they can change into anything, not just humans. Not long after a special task force was commissioned by the government named ZECT to track down the aliens.
-Our main character will actually be Kagami/Gatack (not with those names necessarily), a recent recruit to ZECT who's chosen by one of the newly created Zecter's built to fight the worm. Right after he receives his ZECT HQ is ambushed by the aliens and the Zecter's scatter over the city/country/world as a self-defense program. Kagami now must fight the aliens as well as track down the other Zecter's, and if they have partnered with someone try and recruit them.
-Kabuto will be a mysterious Rider who's identity won't be known right away. He refuses to join ZECT (other Riders will as well) but fights the aliens still, mostly on his own terms.

I do have marketing/naming ideas for Double and OOO. For Double just keep everything the same, no real need to change names IMO. For OOO, only name the Combos and give them names based on the theme of the combo. TaToBa could be Base/Basic Combo, GataKiriBa could be Insect Combo, PuToTyra Dino Combo, etc. The medals will just be referred to by their color (red medals, blue medals). Not sure what OOO or Birth would be called, but I like the ideas presented of Birth being called Cell presented earlier in the thread. Maybe for OOO something around the number 3, maybe Kamen Rider Tri?

If you are going to change the combo names, then at least keep Latoratah and Tatoba's names. I want those combo's respective songs by shu wantanabe to be sung in English. Plus, what's wrong with latoratah? 2/3 of that name is in english so why change the unnecessary? Maybe the Tatoba theme could be the opening theme for the show and during the fights ala Power Rangers.

Because 1/3 of it isn't English?
This would be an adaptation for English speaking audiences, not people who may or may not have a faint understanding of Japanese. Names like TaToBa should be the first thing to go.

I know now that tatoba has to go but Latoratah. Really?

If you can somehow change "Tora" into "Tiger" while keeping "LaToraTah", let me know

Anyway, I do actually think it's possible to keep the form names the same. They'd just have to explain to viewers what "Kujaku" and "Sai" mean
